OBJECTIVE The goal of this study was to determine how the Segway compares to clients' current method of mobility in meeting their specific mobility goals. DESIGN This study included 10 subjects (aged 19-65 yrs) with a wide range of disabilities (e.g., multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, and amputee) who were able to walk at least 6 m with or without assistance. Subjects navigated a 25-m o...

A Segway is often used to transport a user across mid range distances in urban environments. It has more degrees of freedom than car/bike and is faster than pedestrian. However a navigation system designed for it has not been researched. The existing navigation systems are adapted for car drivers or pedestrians. Using such systems on the Segway can increase the driver’s cognitive workload and g...

A firm’s development in its ability to execute key decisions more efficiently than competitors could lead an overall better performance. While investment decision results outflows of cash and financing inflow cash, dividend concert with how profits are distributed among shareholders. With the interest shareholders, smart appropriate have been important all businesses. This article decompose com...

Robotic soccer is an adversarial multi-agent research domain, in which issues of perception, multi-agent coordination and team strategy are explored. One area of interest investigates heterogeneous teams of humans and robots, where the teammates must coordinate not as master and slave, but as equal participants. We research this peer-to-peer question within the domain of Segway soccer, where te...

Statistical machine learning approach to understand human behaviors has been attracting considerable amounts of attention in recent years. If the authors understand more about humans, the authors can make more user-friendly machines. In this paper, the authors propose the driver recognition method from their record of manipulations using support vector machine. The authors demonstrate the effic...

This paper concerns the adaptation of a Segway electric scooter for mobile robot navigation work and its instrumentation in preparation for these experiments, potentially aimed at security applications where its speed and dexterity are of distinct value.

This paper presents a new technology and a systematic approach for disaster response and recovery of Critical Physical Infrastructures (CPIs). Our suggested approach is based on using a Mobile Workstation Chariot (MWC) assembled on Segway personal transporter which supports both horizontal and vertical real-time visual data capture and transmission flow, first responders and civil engineers can...
